* 8021q: fix a memory leak for VLAN 0 deviceCong Wang2018-01-101-6/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A vlan device with vid 0 is allow to creat by not able to be fully cleaned up by unregister_vlan_dev() which checks for vlan_id!=0. Also, VLAN 0 is probably not a valid number and it is kinda "reserved" for HW accelerating devices, but it is probably too late to reject it from creation even if makes sense. Instead, just remove the check in unregister_vlan_dev().

| * vlan: fix a use-after-free in vlan_device_event()Cong Wang2017-11-111-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After refcnt reaches zero, vlan_vid_del() could free dev->vlan_info via RCU: RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->vlan_info, NULL); call_rcu(&vlan_info->rcu, vlan_info_rcu_free); However, the pointer 'grp' still points to that memory since it is set before vlan_vid_del(): vlan_info = rtnl_dereference(dev->vlan_info); if (!vlan_info) goto out; grp = &vlan_info->grp; Depends on when that RCU callback is scheduled, we could trigger a use-after-free in vlan_group_for_each_dev() right following this vlan_vid_del(). Fix it by moving vlan_vid_del() before setting grp. This is also symmetric to the vlan_vid_add() we call in vlan_device_event().

* | add support of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE bit in vlanVadim Fedorenko2017-11-042-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some time ago Eric Dumazet suggested a "hack the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE flag on the vlan netdev". But the last comment was "does not support properly bonding/team.(If the real_dev->privflags IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE bit changes, we want to update all the vlans at the same time )" I've extended that patch to support changes of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE in bonding/team. Both bonding and team call netdev_change_features() after recalculation of features including priv_flags IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE bit. So the only thing needed to support is to recheck this bit in vlan_transfer_features().

By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

Only when dev is not registered, then free it directly. The following is the part coredump when netdev_upper_dev_link failed in register_vlan_dev. I removed the lines which are too long.

However, the release of these resources can occur in one of two different places. Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor(). The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it is safe to perform the freeing. netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast address lists are flushed. netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the netdev references all go away. Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor() almost universally does also a free_netdev(). This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice(). Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice() fails. If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor(). This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same. However, this means that the resources that would normally be released by netdev->destructor() will not be. Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice() fails. Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks. Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev(). netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for free_netdev(). netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice(). Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit() and netdev->priv_destructor(). And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* vlan: Keep NETIF_F_HW_CSUM similar to other software devicesVlad Yasevich2017-05-081-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Vlan devices, like all other software devices, enable NETIF_F_HW_CSUM feature. However, unlike all the othe other software devices, vlans will switch to using IP|IPV6_CSUM features, if the underlying devices uses them. In these situations, checksum offload features on the vlan device can't be controlled via ethtool. This patch makes vlans keep HW_CSUM feature if the underlying device supports checksum offloading. This makes vlan devices behave like other software devices, and restores control to the user. A side-effect is that some offload settings (typically UFO) may be enabled on the vlan device while being disabled on the HW. However, the GSO code will correctly process the packets. This actually results in slightly better raw throughput. Signed-off-by: Vladislav Yasevich <vyasevic@redhat.com> Acked-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Currently when a vlan device is created, its wanted_features is set to current features of its base device. The problem is that the base device can get new features and they are not propagated to vlan-s of this device. If we look at bonding devices, they doesn't have this problem and this patch suggests to fix this issue by the same way how it works for bonding devices. We meet this problem, when we try to create a vlan device over a bonding device. When a system are booting, real devices require time to be initialized, so bonding devices created without slaves, then vlan devices are created and only then ethernet devices are added to the bonding device. As a result we have vlan devices with disabled scatter-gather. * create a bonding device $ ip link add bond0 type bond $ ethtool -k bond0 | grep scatter scatter-gather: off tx-scatter-gather: off [requested on] tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off [requested on] * create a vlan device $ ip link add link bond0 name bond0.10 type vlan id 10 $ ethtool -k bond0.10 | grep scatter scatter-gather: off tx-scatter-gather: off tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off * Add a slave device to bond0 $ ip link set dev eth0 master bond0 And now we can see that the bond0 device has got the scatter-gather feature, but the bond0.10 hasn't got it.

There are 2 reasons to do so: 1) This field is really an index into an zero based array and thus is unsigned entity. Using negative value is out-of-bound access by definition. 2) On x86_64 unsigned 32-bit data which are mixed with pointers via array indexing or offsets added or subtracted to pointers are preffered to signed 32-bit data. "int" being used as an array index needs to be sign-extended to 64-bit before being used. void f(long *p, int i) { g(p[i]); } roughly translates to movsx rsi, esi mov rdi, [rsi+...] call g MOVSX is 3 byte instruction which isn't necessary if the variable is unsigned because x86_64 is zero extending by default. Now, there is net_generic() function which, you guessed it right, uses "int" as an array index: static inline void *net_generic(const struct net *net, int id) { ... ptr = ng->ptr[id - 1]; ... } And this function is used a lot, so those sign extensions add up. Patch snipes ~1730 bytes on allyesconfig kernel (without all junk messing with code generation): add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730) Unfortunately some functions actually grow bigger. This is a semmingly random artefact of code generation with register allocator being used differently. gcc decides that some variable needs to live in new r8+ registers and every access now requires REX prefix. Or it is shifted into r12, so [r12+0] addressing mode has to be used which is longer than [r8] However, overall balance is in negative direction: add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730) function old new delta nfsd4_lock 3886 3959 +73 tipc_link_build_proto_msg 1096 1140 +44 mac80211_hwsim_new_radio 2776 2808 +32 tipc_mon_rcv 1032 1058 +26 svcauth_gss_legacy_init 1413 1429 +16 tipc_bcbase_select_primary 379 392 +13 nfsd4_exchange_id 1247 1260 +13 nfsd4_setclientid_confirm 782 793 +11 ... put_client_renew_locked 494 480 -14 ip_set_sockfn_get 730 716 -14 geneve_sock_add 829 813 -16 nfsd4_sequence_done 721 703 -18 nlmclnt_lookup_host 708 686 -22 nfsd4_lockt 1085 1063 -22 nfs_get_client 1077 1050 -27 tcf_bpf_init 1106 1076 -30 nfsd4_encode_fattr 5997 5930 -67 Total: Before=154856051, After=154854321, chg -0.00% Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, GRO can do unlimited recursion through the gro_receive handlers. This was fixed for tunneling protocols by limiting tunnel GRO to one level with encap_mark, but both VLAN and TEB still have this problem. Thus, the kernel is vulnerable to a stack overflow, if we receive a packet composed entirely of VLAN headers. This patch adds a recursion counter to the GRO layer to prevent stack overflow. When a gro_receive function hits the recursion limit, GRO is aborted for this skb and it is processed normally. This recursion counter is put in the GRO CB, but could be turned into a percpu counter if we run out of space in the CB. Thanks to Vladimír Beneš <vbenes@redhat.com> for the initial bug report.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The idea for type_check in dev_get_nest_level() was to count the number of nested devices of the same type (currently, only macvlan or vlan devices). This prevented the false positive lockdep warning on configurations such as: eth0 <--- macvlan0 <--- vlan0 <--- macvlan1 However, this doesn't prevent a warning on a configuration such as: eth0 <--- macvlan0 <--- vlan0 eth1 <--- vlan1 <--- macvlan1 In this case, all the locks end up with a nesting subclass of 1, so lockdep thinks that there is still a deadlock: - in the first case we have (macvlan_netdev_addr_lock_key, 1) and then take (vlan_netdev_xmit_lock_key, 1) - in the second case, we have (vlan_netdev_xmit_lock_key, 1) and then take (macvlan_netdev_addr_lock_key, 1) By removing the linktype check in dev_get_nest_level() and always incrementing the nesting depth, lockdep considers this configuration valid.

By default vlan over macsec devices use invalid mtu, dropping all the large packets. This patch adds a netif helper to check if an upper vlan device needs mtu reduction. The helper is used during vlan devices initialization to set a valid default and during mtu updating to forbid invalid, too bit, mtu values. The helper currently only check if the lower dev is a macsec device, if we get more users, we need to update only the helper (possibly reserving an additional IFF bit).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently vlan notifier handler will try to update all vlans for a device when that device comes up. A problem occurs, however, when the vlan device was set to promiscuous, but not by the user (ex: a bridge). In that case, dev->gflags are not updated. What results is that the lower device ends up with an extra promiscuity count.

What we end up with is a vlan with promiscuity count of 1 and and a physical device with a promiscuity count of 2. They should both have a count 1.

Since we have software fallbacks in case the NIC can not handle some features for multiple vlans, we can add the same features as the lower vlan devices for stacked vlan devices. This allows stacked vlan devices to create large (GSO) packets and not to segment packets. Those packets will be segmented by software on the real device, or even can be segmented by the NIC once TSO for multiple vlans becomes enabled by the following patches. The exception is those related to FCoE, which does not have a software fallback. Signed-off-by: Toshiaki Makita <makita.toshiaki@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* net: Fix high overhead of vlan sub-device teardown.David S. Miller2015-03-181-3/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a networking device is taken down that has a non-trivial number of VLAN devices configured under it, we eat a full synchronize_net() for every such VLAN device. This is because of the call chain: NETDEV_DOWN notifier --> vlan_device_event() --> dev_change_flags() --> __dev_change_flags() --> __dev_close() --> __dev_close_many() --> dev_deactivate_many() --> synchronize_net() This is kind of rediculous because we already have infrastructure for batching doing operation X to a list of net devices so that we only incur one sync. So make use of that by exporting dev_close_many() and adjusting it's interfaace so that the caller can fully manage the batch list. Use this in vlan_device_event() and all the overhead goes away.
